When running the servo wizard (with Guardian) i am unsure which parameters to give full control input and which to give actual input. The manual states when using Guardian to give full control input and when not using it to give actual input. I am using Guardian so what input do i give for setting cruising? what about climbing?

hi nogas,

the only way you can find out the correct throttle settings is during the fligt tests.
during the first setup on the bench give a liitle bit more than half way for "cruise" and 3/4 for "climb".

my way to find the settings:
1) make some testflights "by sight" to find the proper CG, angle of attack, motor-shift, servo-throw, sets for expo, .... like any other plane without fpv-equipment.(all with guardian gain "0").
2) set the ahi
3) rise the gain of the guardian to the wanted rate of stabilisation
4) notice the stick positions for cruise and moderate climbout
5) redo the wizzard with those stick inputs
6) test and optimize the rth following the given order in the manual.

It just tells me to hold the throttle / elevator / rudder aileron in position to climb / cruise / descend then hit next. Did everything it asks 3 times, trying different amounts of input and it says that it is finished everytime but still the menu tells me that i need to run the safety wizard.

hi,
just to be sure ... you wrote "hit next" - you are doing the wizzard on the pc - right? Mike described the "traditional" wizzard using the osd and a tv-connection.
i would do the do the wizzard connected to a tv and not with the pc also ... in former firmware-versions the pc-wizzard made some problems.
on the bottom line you see the commands what you should do followed by a number (which counts down) ...... when the next command comes up, the previous set was stored. hold the sticks until the next command appears and all is fine.

Thanks Thomas.

OK, So for cruise, descend and climb i give actual inputs? I took note when flying today where the throttle was for each of those. Cruise (just below half), descend (no throttle) and climb (approx 3/4 - full)

No i'm not getting any numbers. It just tells me to hold the throttle, elevator in position for cruising, descending or climbing then hit next.

Maybe its just the computer version as Mike suggested???

Gotta figure out how to work this from my Tx. Kinda makes it difficult not being able to change settings at the field.

Another question that I want to ask is on the RTH.
I believe I have the radius 800 feet in altitude to 575. And outside the 800 radius I have it for cruising altitude at 2000 feet.

today when I was testing it out for the first time i was more than a mile out about 7000 ft from home and it came home just perfectly but then as it got closer It passed by me at about 700 feet made a right turn (a wide one) and flew down to 50 feet of the ground and i was waiting for it to climb but i wasent climbing, it went down to 50 ft !! and if I wouldn't off pulled up on the stick it would've kept on going lower. I thought that the RTH was supposed to keep on circling above me at a certain height. Sorry for the newbie questions but I'm really new to Eagletree and to fpv.

Nice vid, you have some balls leaving it that long to see if it will kick in!

Have you got a vid of the OSD display and settings? It should keep alt yes, did everything display correctly in the OSD?

i dont have video of the osd display. all i know is that when I hit return to home I was 7000 feet away that's Little bit more then a mile away and it came back just fine. but it didnt circle above me.

Do you think the problem below is because of some incompatibility of the LRS system and the ET OSD ?

Dear friends from RCgroups,

I´m having a problem with my ET system and a new CL rx, my aileron servo doesn´t stop jittering when I turn the CL tx on.

CONNECTIONS
I use the RTH function of the ET system, so I connect the CL rx´s servo signals into the ET OSD and then to the servos. This way when I turn on the CL tx the servos start jittering

I did a few tests.
a) When I connect the servos directly to the CL rx, the servos work fine.
b) If I connect only the elevator channel from the CL rx into the ET OSD, everything works fine.
c) But If I connect the aileron channel from the CL tx into the ET OSD, the servos start to jitter as soon as I turn the CL tx on. (it doesn´t matter if the elevator channel is also connected).
d) If I substitute the CL rx by my Spektrum receiver, everything works fine (aileron and elevator).

The problem only appears when I use the CL rx AND the ET OSD, so I guess the problem is not with the ET OSD exclusively, because it works ok when I use another receiver. But is not also a matter of UHF interference, because the servos work fine if only the UHF system is not being used.
Any ideias ?
Thanks in advance
